I mean I've known singing mice to be a thing since the 90's, but sightings go as far back as 1955.
Although, to be fair, they said they were bringing back Pinky & the Brain, but I don't think like this...

A lot of fancy words and numbers that are beyond my ken - but the pictures of the mice were adorbs! AND big props for the cool bow-tie! In summary - congratulations, Doc!

YOU WORE A BOWTIE. How can you get any cooler? Yay for singing mice and for finally defeating the academia (I always imagine defences as the PhD candidate with a sword fighting off the committee while proclaiming their thesis).

So we have in the Phelps lab a series of measures that we can use to recapitulate any singing mouse song de novoHere's one that didn't quite make it past the ethics committee

Congrats. When can we read about Aeslin mice (Apodemus sapiens) behaviour?
